From Babylon to New Jerusalem

The Books of Daniel and Revelation hold significant places within the canon of Scripture, particularly for conservative Christians who seek to understand the prophetic messages embedded within these texts. Both books are apocalyptic, offering insights into the divine plan for humanity and the ultimate triumph of God’s kingdom. While Daniel is situated in the context of the Babylonian exile, revealing God’s sovereignty over earthly kingdoms, Revelation emerges from the trials faced by early Christians under Roman oppression. Together, they provide a comprehensive view of God’s redemptive history, emphasizing the continuity of His message across different eras and circumstances.
